They don't need to use those specific ideas, I'm pointing out basic premise of doing something with him that we haven't really seen before and Sparda is still very much a mystery. Dante barely even remembers him. He honors him because of what he's been told about him, not because he actually knows what kind of individual he was. He's a legend and legend aren't always necessarily what they're described to be, or at least that could be the kind of narrative demons can try to use against Dante. Creating personal conflict for him, because the figure he spent his entire life looking up to may or may not turn out to be who he always thought he was, isn't something we've seen before.

I still don't understand how any of what you pointed out shows the character has no stories left in him. You have apparently bought into what Capcom has been seling for all those years. There is no such thing as a fictional character reaching their full potential unless TPTB find it narratively convenient to make it seem so.
